  • Patent number: 11911206
    Abstract: Disclosed is a calibration object for an x-ray system and an optical system, the calibration object comprising: a first part made of a first material having a matte surface, the first material having a first attenuation coefficient of x-rays; a second part made of a second material having a second attenuation coefficient of x-rays different from the attenuation coefficient of the first material; wherein the first part is attached to the second part so that one or more features are detectable by one or more optical cameras.

  • Patent number: 11723759
    Abstract: Disclosed in a method, a user interface and a system for use in determining shade of a patient's tooth, wherein a digital 3D representation including shape data and texture data for the tooth is obtained. A tooth shade value for at least one point on the tooth is determined based on the texture data of the corresponding point of the digital 3D representation and on known texture values of one or more reference tooth shade values.
